Mr. Chairman, I think the rules prohibit a Member from imputing motives to another Member, and I would request that you consider whether Mr. Gargan's comments are imputing a motive to Members who may have had questions about this bill. If you would like, Mr. Chairman, I will spell it out. What I take from Mr. Gargan's comments is that there is a suggestion that in questioning the provisions of this bill, a Member who may have been on a Cabinet that considered decisions prior to 1982 may be afraid that there will be some embarrassing disclosures. I would like to suggest that kind of imputation of motive is outside the rules of this House and that the Member should be requested to withdraw that accusation, that allegation. Thank you.
